Hi Laurie,
This is quite a surprise. Your line of Heltsleys is in the same line as mine, back a few generations. William Helsley born in 1810 or so was my great-great grandfather.
Sorry I have the good AOL e-mail name.
Brenda Doss, who did the book on Heltsley/Helsley family associations, had a grandmother, Rushia in the same line too but she insisted her name had no "T."
I was born in Drakesboro, the same town my father Ernest was born in. His father was born in Greenville. Etc.
I'll do more answering to you directly, if that's okay.
Also, I spent a few hours and a nice dinner with J.M.and family a year ago. I talk to their son, Jerry, now and then. He's been a big help in my efforts to understand the far-flung Heltsley/Helsley family. I too had mistakenly believed there weren't many of us.
